MsAmira Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Hello! I finished my SOP and I hit a writer's block at the VERY last sentence. I am applying to the Clinical Psychology PhD program at City College and my last sentence goes something like: "Acceptance into the PhD program at City College would greatly benefit me as I pursue my research and career objectives." I find it kind of bland... and I can't seem to think of another good way to finish my SOP with a BANG! Any ideas? I just need some inspiration. It's really just this one last sentence. Thank you!!

newnation Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I think it would be better if your statement indicated some kind of mutuality. Not only how you will benefit but also how the institution will gain by admiting you (now or in the future). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
